This tutorial was
written assuming you have working knowledge of PSP.

~♥~ Let’s get started ~♥~

Open up the template.

Shift + D.

Close out the original.

Open up the background layer.

Delete the top 3 layers and #2 layer.

Quick Note:

I changed the color of a few
elements/papers to match the blue in the tube better. The color I used was #2751a2 and will let you
know in the tutorial what I have recolored.

Highlght #1 layer.

Click on it with your Magic Wand.

New Raster layer.

Copy and paste Paper 3 Into Selection.

Duplicate/Change the Properties to
Overlay.

Deselect.

Delete the template layer.

Highlght #3 layer.

Click on it with your Magic Wand.

New Raster layer.

Copy and paste Paper 1 Into Selection.

Deselect.

Delete the template layer.

Give it a slight Inner Bevel:

Color Pallet:

Foreground: #000000

Background: #46678d

Highlight #4 layer.

Make your Color Replacer Tool
active.

Double right click your mouse on the
dotted line.

It should turn to a shade of blue.

Highlight #5 layer.

Click on it with your Magic Wand.

New Raster layer.

Copy and paste Paper 6 Into Selection.

Adjust/Add Remove Noise/Add Noise:

Gaussian and Monochrome checked

Noise: 58%

OK

Deselect.

Delete the template layer.

I recolored this paper layer.

Repeat the above step with:

#7, #9, and #11 layers

Copy and paste Paper 3 as a new
layer over #6 layer.

Highlight #6 layer.

Click on it with your Magic Wand.

In your layers pallet highlight the
paper layer and right click your mouse.

Choose “Promote Section to Layer”
from the menu.

Deselect.

Do Not delete the template layer.

Move Paper 3 above #8 layer.

Repeat the above step.

Repeat the above step with #8, #10,
and #12 layers.

Once you have done that you can then
delete Paper 3 as you will no longer be using it.

To each square paper layer:

Duplicate the paper.

Change the Properties to Overlay.

Copy and paste your tube as a new
layer.

Position it in front of the squares –
see my tag for reference.

Duplicate the tube layer and move it
up slight.

Move it below the original tube
layer in your layers pallet and position it exactly as you’d like it to be
within the small squares. You can even
change the Opacity of the tube to get a better idea of where you want this
tube. Once you have the tube in exact
position you’re going to promote it just as you did the paper:

In your layers pallet move the tube
layer just above the papers that belong to #6 layer.

Highlight #6 layer and click on it
with your Magic Wand.

Highlight the tube layer that’s just
above the paper layer and right click your mouse.

Choose “Promote Section to Layer”

Change the Opacity of the Promoted
layer to Burn and lower the Opacity to about 69.
